Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Parabellenker mit einem an einem Parabellenkerende vorgesehenen gerollten Auge und mit einem dem Auge gegenüberliegenden Parabellenkerendbereich.The invention relates to a Parabellenker with a provided on a Parabellenkerende rolled eye and with an eye opposite Parabellenkerendbereich.

Parabellenker sind wichtige Bauteile für insbesondere Nutzfahrzeugauflieger und anhänger, bei denen sich Luftfederungssysteme mit Parabellenkern weitestgehend durchgesetzt haben. Parabellenker sind jedoch schwergewichtige Bauteile, wobei in den letzten Jahren starke Bemühungen zu beobachten waren, die für die Produktion solcher Parabellenker erforderlichen Energieaufwendungen zu verringern und auch das Gewicht zu reduzieren.Parabellenker are important components for in particular commercial vehicle semitrailers and trailers, where air suspension systems with Parabellenkern have prevailed as far as possible. Parabellenker are, however, heavy components, and in recent years, strong efforts have been observed to reduce the energy required for the production of such Parabellenker and also to reduce the weight.

Aus der EP 1 138 432 A2 ist ein Parabellenker bekannt mit einem zwischen dem Parabellenkerauge und dem gegenüberliegenden Parabellenkerendbereich gegensinnig abgekröpften Zwischenbereich, wobei der dem Parabellenkerauge gegenüberliegende Parabellenkerendbereich sich bis zu seinem Ende hin verjüngt mit einer abgerundeten Spitze. Der abgekröpfte Zwischenbereich ist geplättet ausgebildet, so dass er sich ausgehend von dem gerollten Auge verbreitert. Dies dient dazu, insbesondere Auflageflächen zu verbreitern, an denen ein Achskörper über U-förmige Zuganker mit Endgewinden und daran zu befestigenden Befestigungsstegen und - muttern zu verspannen. Dieser Lenker ist damit ein relativ schwergewichtiges Bauteil.From the EP 1 138 432 A2 a Parabellenker is known with a between the Parabellenkerauge and the opposite Parabellenkerendbereich oppositely bent intermediate region, wherein the Parabellenkerauge opposite Parabellenkerendbereich tapers to its end with a rounded tip. The cranked intermediate area is flattened so that it widened starting from the rolled eye. This serves in particular to widen bearing surfaces on which an axle body is to be clamped via U-shaped tie rods with end threads and fastening webs and nuts to be fastened thereto. This handlebar is thus a relatively heavyweight component.

Aus der US 2011/0227308 A1 , die den Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 offenbart, ist ein Parabellenker mit einem an einem Parabellenkerende vorgesehenen gerollten Auge und mit einem dem gerollten Auge gegenüberliegenden Parabellenkerendbereich bekannt, wobei zwischen dem Auge und dem gegenüberliegenden Parabellenkerendbereich ein gerundeter Achsaufnahmebereich vorgesehen ist zur Anordnung eines Achskörpers. In einer Ausgestaltung dieses Parabellenkers dieser Druckschrift ist vorgesehen, dass quer zur Längsrichtung des Parabellenkers eine sickenförmige Aufnahme in dem gerundeten Achsaufnahmebereich vorgesehen ist, in die eine nutenförmige Anformung des Achskörpers als Verdrehsicherung anzuordnen ist. Damit ist jedoch kein Parabellenker geschaffen, der in leichterer Bauweise größeren Beanspruchungen gerecht werden kann. Aus der DE 10 2009 049 400 A1 ist eine Verbindungsstange für eine Drehmomentenstütze bekannt, die aus wenigstens zwei Halbschalen besteht, die an ihren Enden jeweils eine Ausbuchtung in Gestalt von Aufnahmeaugen aufweist. Eine derartige Verbindungsstange ist jedoch nicht geeignet, als Parabellenker für Achskörper eingesetzt zu werden.From the US 2011/0227308 A1 DE 195595 A discloses a parabola driver with a rolled eye provided on a parabola cutter and with a parabolic bellmouth region opposite the rolled eye, a rounded axle receiving region being provided between the eye and the opposite parabolic bellmouth for arranging an axle body. In one embodiment of this Parabellenkers this document is provided that a bead-shaped receptacle is provided transversely to the longitudinal direction of the Parabellenkers in the rounded Achsaufnahmebereich into which a groove-shaped Anformung the axle body is to be arranged as rotation. However, this is not a Parabellenker created that can meet heavier loads in lighter construction. From the DE 10 2009 049 400 A1 is known a connecting rod for a torque arm, which consists of at least two half-shells having at their ends in each case a bulge in the form of receiving eyes. However, such a connecting rod is not suitable to be used as a Parabellenker for axle.

Es ist Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, einen Parabellenker derart weiterzubilden, dass er in leichterer Bauweise großen Beanspruchungen gerecht werden kann. Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe ist ein Parabellenker der im Anspruch 1 genannten Art vorgesehen.It is an object of the present invention to develop a Parabellenker such that it can be met in a lighter design large stresses. To solve this problem, a Parabellenker the type mentioned in claim 1 is provided.

Damit hat der Parabellenker einen Achsaufnahmebereich, der gerundet ausgebildet ist und mithin gerundete Achskörper aufnehmen kann. Dieser Achsaufnahmebereich ist mit zumindest zwei mit Abstand in Längsrichtung des Parabellenkers vorzusehenden Befestigungsaufnahmen versehen, an denen ein z.B. U-förmiges Zugankerteil mit Endgewinden und Befestigungsmuttern vorgesehen werden kann. Zwischen diesen Befestigungsaufnahmen ist zumindest eine Sicke gelegen, mit der die neben der Sicke vorzusehenden Kontaktflächen dieses Achsaufnahmebereiches bei gleichem Materialeinsatz zu verbreitern sind. Damit ist auch das Auge insgesamt verbreitert. Diese Sicke ist zentral mittig vorgesehen und von der Außenfläche des Parabellenkers einwärts in Richtung auf den Achskörper hin ausgerichtet. Zusätzlich kann eine Sicke angeordnet werden, die von der Innenfläche, also der Fläche des Achsaufnahmebereiches, die zu dem zu befestigenden Achskörper gewandt ist, weg weisend hin zur Außenfläche des Parabellenkers gerichtet ist. Es kann auch eine einwärts, aber auch eine auswärts gerichtete Sicke vorgesehen sein. Durch die Sicke ist jedoch nicht nur der Parabellenker zu verbreitern. Vielmehr ist durch die Sicke auch die Festigkeit des Parabellenkers und damit die Fähigkeit, große Kräfte aufzunehmen, wesentlich erhöht. Insgesamt kann die Verbindung zwischen Achskörper und Parabellenlenker leichter ausgeführt werden, da wenige Verbindungselemente benötigt werden, was zu Kostenvorteilen führt. Gleichwohl ist ein Parabellenkerbauteil zur Verfügung gestellt, das großen Beanspruchungen gerecht werden kann.Thus, the Parabellenker has an axle receiving area, which is rounded and can therefore accommodate rounded axle body. This axle receiving area is provided with at least two fastening receptacles to be provided at a distance in the longitudinal direction of the parabolic arm, to which, for example, a U-shaped tie rod part with end threads and fastening nuts can be provided. Between these fastening receptacles, at least one bead is located, with which the contact surfaces of this axle receiving area to be provided in addition to the bead are to be widened with the same material used. This also broadens the eye. This bead is provided centrally in the middle and aligned inwards from the outer surface of the parabolic arm in the direction of the axle body. In addition, a bead can be arranged, which is directed away from the inner surface, ie the surface of the axle receiving area, which is turned to the axle to be fastened, towards the outer surface of the parabolic. It can also be provided inwardly, but also outwardly directed bead. By the beading, however, not only the Parabellenker is to widen. Rather, by the bead and the strength of the Parabellenkers and thus the ability to absorb large forces, significantly increased. Overall, the connection between the axle body and Parabellenlenker be made easier, because few fasteners are needed, which leads to cost advantages. Nevertheless, a Parabellenkerbauteil is provided, which can meet high loads.

In der Zeichnung ist allgemein mit 1 ein Parabellenker beziffert, der an seinem einen Parabellenkerende ein gerolltes Auge 2 und an dem gerollten Ende 2 gegenüberliegenden Ende einen abgeflachten Parabellenkerendbereich 3 aufweist. Zur Aufnahme des Achskörpers 18 hat er einen Achsaufnahmebereich 4, der gerundet ausgebildet ist mit zwei Befestigungsaufnahmen 5 und 6, wobei sich an den gerundeten Achaufnahmebereich 6 jeweils zwei gegensinnig gerundete Bereiche 7.1 und 7.2 anschließen, wobei der Bereich 7.1 das gerollte Auge 2 und der Bereich 7.2 den abgeflachten, im Wesentlichen rechteckförmigen Parabellenkerendbereich 3 aufweist. Zwischen den Befestigungsaufnahmen 5 und 6 ist in dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 1 eine einwärts zu dem zu befestigenden Achskörper 18 hin ausgerichtete Sicke 8 und in dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 2 an der Innenseite des Achsaufnahmebereiches 4 eine von dem zu befestigenden Achskörper 18 hin wegweisende Sicke 9 vorgesehen. Es ist möglich, dass die Sicken 8 und 9 in dem Achsaufnahmebereich 4 gemeinsam vorgesehen sind. Durch die Sicken 8 und 9 sind die Kontaktflächen 10 in dem Achsaufnahme 4 bei gleichem Materialeinsatz verbreitet, um der Querschnittsschwächung durch die Befestigungsaufnahmen 5 und 6 entgegenzuwirken.In the drawing, a parabola is generally indicated by 1, which has a flattened parabellenkerendbereich 3 at its one Parabellenkerende a rolled eye 2 and the rolled end 2 opposite end. To accommodate the axle body 18, it has an axle receiving portion 4, which is rounded with two mounting receivers 5 and 6, followed by the rounded axle receiving portion 6 two oppositely rounded areas 7.1 and 7.2, wherein the area 7.1, the rolled eye 2 and the area 7.2 has the flattened, substantially rectangular Parabellenkerendbereich 3. Between the fastening receptacles 5 and 6 is in the embodiment according to Fig. 1 an inwardly directed to the axle body 18 to be fastened bead 8 and in the embodiment according to Fig. 2 on the inside of Achsaufnahmebereiches 4 a pointing away from the axle to be fastened axle 18 towards bead 9 is provided. It is possible that the beads 8 and 9 are provided in the axle receiving portion 4 together. Through the beads 8 and 9, the contact surfaces 10 in the axle 4 with the same material used to the Cross-sectional weakening counteract by the fastening receptacles 5 and 6.

Wie aus Fig. 2 ersichtlich, schließen sich an diese Kontaktflächenbereiche 10 jeweils angeformte Lappen 11 seitlich an, durch die die Kontaktflächen an dem zu befestigenden Achskörper 18 zu vergrößern sind. Wie aus den Zeichnungen ersichtlich ist, sind auch an dem gerollten Auge 2 Sicken 12 bzw. 13 und 14 vorgesehen. Die Sicke 12 läuft zentral mittig und geht dann absatzfrei bei 14 bzw. 15 in den Bereich 7.1 über. Weiter ist auch ersichtlich, dass die Materialdicke der Bereiche 7.1 bzw. 7.2 zu dem gerollten Auge 2 bzw. zu dem platten Endbereich 3 hin abnimmt. Dieser Bereich 7.2 geht mit einem Absatz bei 16 und einem Dorn 17 in den plattenförmigen Endbereich 3 über.How out Fig. 2 can be seen, close to these contact surface areas 10 each formed tabs 11 laterally, through which the contact surfaces are to be attached to the axle to be fastened 18. As can be seen from the drawings, 2 beads 12 and 13 and 14 are also provided on the rolled eye. The bead 12 runs centrally in the middle and then passes paragraph-free at 14 or 15 into the area 7.1. It can also be seen that the material thickness of the regions 7. 1 or 7. 2 decreases toward the rolled eye 2 or towards the flat end region 3. This area 7.2 merges with a shoulder 16 and a spike 17 into the plate-shaped end area 3.

In Fig. 3 ist der montierte Achskörper 18 ersichtlich, der über Zuganker 19 und Muttern 20 mit dem Parabellenker 1 zu verspannen ist. Aus Fig. 4 ist noch ersichtlich, dass der Parabellenker 1 eine Anformung 21 in seinem Achsaufnahmebereich 4 aufweisen kann, der zusammen mit dem Achskörper 18 einen Formschluss erzeugt.In Fig. 3 is the mounted axle body 18 can be seen, which is to be clamped via tie rods 19 and nuts 20 with the parabola 1. Out Fig. 4 is still apparent that the Parabellenker 1 may have a Anformung 21 in its Achsaufnahmebereich 4, which generates a positive connection together with the axle 18.
